    I recently decided that I was going to finish all 12 transcripts for the pre-Fade to White introductions in an attempt to learn more about the connections. Currently, I've got 4 left to do before I start the articles again, and am working my way through Flowers for All and Court in the Sands, which have both undergone extensive changes to more clearly fit the canon since 2010.

    The Loremongers for them will, unfortunately, need to cherry-pick a bit when it comes to the transcript in order to not cause confusion, but I've found a way to make it work while removing only unnamed superfluous NPC dialoge
    Example
    Verb-performing Adventurer: I'm so glad you stopped to talk to me instead of that uppity jerk with the (!) above his head! I shall reward you with a lore snippet based on my subjective analysis of this scene!
    Anyway, thanks for getting this conversation started so soon!

    I was really surprised to see the horn so prominently displayed... but it does beg a question, now, doesn't it?

    Is this the same horn from Limsa? Does that mean Ul'dah took place after Limsa? What year is this?
    That last question is really grating on my nerves in terms of these three story arcs.
    Really bad
    .

    Question for Catapult Specifically: You've always mentioned that someone in this story arc specifically said Thancred's visit was in 1562. Where was this? Was it the Seranelien thing you mentioned already? Because that alone doesn't specify that a chunk of time didn't exist between the Keeper's fall and their arrival in Ul'dah.
